Entry Title:
Snowflake Love
Project Description:
I entered a video called Snowflake Love because when I made it, it was almost going to snow. I wanted my video to be about snow because I thought it would bring good luck for snow, and it did! Mrs. Wright taught us about stop motion videos and I knew I wanted to try that. I used stop motion studio app on my iPad. My mom helped me cut out lots of snowflakes. I wanted to look like snowflakes dancing and falling down so I kept moving the snowflakes around. When I was done making my video, my brother and me threw the snowflakes in the air and laid them by our back door to make it snow!
